My husband lives with chronic pain from peripheral neuropathy caused by an autoimmune which the Dr's cannot seem pinpoint. We have been together 7 years and I always feel so helpless in helping him deal with his pain. As a man what would you like your wife to do to help support you? Sorry for the Question but I can't seem to find anything on helping my man cope in any form. He's very reserved but I can read him and just wish I could do more.

It really was such a solid show! It was beyond amazing, I was freaking out the whole time and felt like the biggest groupie. I loved their interaction with the crowd and their energy! Definitely have to see them again...and again...and again.. haha :)

No. They never refer to each other directly. Its hard to explain. One will tell me that I'm powerful and strong and another will say, "they lie" very faintly. Like they contradict each other to trick me.

Would I want to be alone? No. I don't know what its like without them. I don't know what quiet is. I mean, I know what silence and quiet is but I've never experienced it. It sounds lonely and scary.

The meds don't make them go away completely. It makes them more manageable. When I wasn't on them, they were violent and I was beyond. I would react to everything with violence or fear. I don't trust people, I trust the voices and thats bad.

The medicine I'm on now, it sedates you. I have no energy or desire to do anything. One pill gave me facial twitches that are now permanent. I hate feeling like I'm being closed off and kept docile enough to handle.

I stopped taking them but was found out and everyone was mad at me. My parents don't trust me and I'm a burden. I can't work because I'm sick. I don't really have friends like normal people. I guess my therapist is my friend. I hide on here and read lots of things about people. I like to pretend I'm them and normal.

It's ok. You didn't bombard. I was scared to answer this post because people would think I'm weird or scary. You're very nice to ask polite questions.

Stop wishing for the future and hoping things will get better and start making changes yourself, you alone determine your destiny and who and what you will become. Their words can only hurt you if you accept it as truth.

Read books electronically. I spend all day in front of a computer screen, and I like to read to decompress. I know people have the argument that it's more convenient and books take up too much space, but that tangible book and page turning and book smell beats the convenience. Plus, I like to display my book collection.

Nothing boring about South Africa stunning country with lots to offer. We make a point of it to go somewhere new every year and we're never disheartened by what SA has to offer. Yes the crime stats are horrible and the government tend to make a mess of things but South Africans are compassionate and friendly folk (well 80%), the weather is awesome, and nature and wildlife a plus the latter tends to make up for alot of the crap we experience.

My best friend hooked up with my boyfriend (after I asked them to spend more time together as they weren't getting along), after I found out I obviously left him and ditched her. They didn't work out and she started dating his brother. They then got engaged and she asked me to be the maid of honor as she had no friends... pffft
